Nevada Wins with a State Lottery

The Issue

Now more than ever, Nevada needs a state lottery. With an estimated revenue shortfall of between $741 million to $911 million as a result of the COVID-19 economic shutdown, the state of Nevada would benefit from lottery revenue.

Who profits from a lottery? Everybody wins!

  • Nevadans - All residents financially benefit from having a lottery in their state. For every dollar spent on a lottery ticket, approximately 25 cents goes to the beneficiaries lotteries support.
  • Players - Around  64 cents of every dollar spent on a lottery ticket goes back to players in the form of prizes. In FY19 U.S. Lottery players won $52.7 billion.
  • Retailers - Small businesses also win with a state lottery. Lottery retailers receive ~6% commission for every ticket sold. In FY19 U.S. lottery retailers earned $5.1 billion. 

Make your voice heard. Let's show Carson City that Nevadans want a state lottery.
